1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Safe, efficient and cancer cell targeted delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 is important to increase the effectiveness of available cancer treatments. Although cancer derived exosomes offer significant advantages, the fact that it carries cancer related/inducing signaling molecules impedes them from being used as a reliable drug delivery vehicle. In this study, we report that normal epithelial cell-derived exosomes engineered to have HN3 (HN3LC9-293exo), target tumor cells as efficiently as that of the cancer cell-derived exosomes (C9HuH-7exo). HN3LC9-293exo were quickly absorbed by the recipient cancer cell in vitro. Anchoring HN3 to the membrane of the exosomes using LAMP2, made HN3LC9-293exo to specifically enter the GPC3
